POLL: Which 2013 Superhero Movie Are You Most Looking Forward To?

Iron Man 3. Man Of Steel. The Wolverine. Thor: The Dark World. Four superheroes make their return to the big screen next year, but which of them are you most looking forward to seeing? Here's your chance to decide...

With Marvel's The Avengers, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Dark Knight Rises, and, er, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance all released this year, it's hard to imagine that 2013 could possibly top 2012. However, it certainly looks set to give it a run for its money. Next year kicks off with Iron Man 3, and the third instalment of the franchise (this time directed by Shane Black) is set to feature fan favourite elements from the comics, such as the "Extremis" armour and 'The Mandarin'. Next up? Superman's eagerly anticipated return to the big screen in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. After the disappointing Superman Returns in 2006, this looks set to be the film fans have always wanted. Another superhero who makes ha return after a disappointing outing, is The Wolverine, starring Hugh Jackman back as Logan. X-Men Origins: Wolverine was a terrible film, but the Japan set sequel (helmed by 3:10 To Yuma's James Mangold) will hopefully wash away the bad taste left by that prequel. We finish off the year with Alan Taylor's Thor: The Dark World. As of right now, we know very little about the sequel, although it is thought that it will involve Dark Elves and more locations that just Earth and Asgard. So, they're the big four of 2013, but which are you most looking forward to? Here's your chance to decide...

This is tough...I'm interested in all of them. But if I had to rank...

1. Iron Man 3/Thor: The Dark World2. Man of Steel3. The Wolverine

I'm a Marvel all the way, and both IM3 and Thor sound incredibly promising. I can't wait to see phase 2! I was never big on Superman, but I'm excited for MOS. Cavill is perfect, and I'm curious to see the character taken in a new direction. And although Origins sucked, The Wolverine seems (at least so far) to have potential. We might get a proper Wolverine film this time!

I mean, I think it's gonna be very very different to Origins.James Mangold directed 'Girl, Interupted' and 'Walk the Line'. We have a good cast of some fresh faces and they all seem to know the direction of the story they want to go.

I think I'm looking forward to Wolverine if not only to see how it'll turn out.I hope they do the whole Japanese thing Kill Bill-style.

This one might be accurate since there is not a Nolan movie involved! Hard choices too, I hoently can't decide. Man of Steel would be it if it wasn't a retelling of his origin, yet again. IM2 was not the best of movies. Wolvie 1 was a shitfest. Going to go with Thor, which I had no complaints about the first one.

This was a tough call. In the end I picked Superman because its in a way the most unknown quantity. High chances are Iron Man 3 is going to be good. Thor will more than likely at least be decent although this one is the most difficult to get excited about because I know so little of what they can do with the character. Wolverine I am excited about but less so since Aronofsky backed out. I'm excited for all of them, but Superman has me the most curious.

Dang, just realized we are in for a slew of confirmed movies from now till 2016. Heck, the cbms released in the past 2 years dwarfs all those from the 90s. It's a great decade to be a comicbook fan.

After 2012, I rather not join the hype. Quite exhausting, actually. All of these film in the poll will surely be good. Iron Man 3 will be kick ass. Man Of Steel looks glorious. The Wolverine might our first great "X-Men film". Thor: The Dark World will get me to go to the cinemas in November (which I only do for 007 films).

You know what I find funny? When people seem to think that Mangold is a bad director. I doubt some of these people have seen most of his films, one person even thought he directed The Prestige while badmouthing Mangold. From Cop Land to 3:10 To Yuma this guy can direct.

Cop Land was not what I was expecting, and is now one of my favorite movies. High hopes for this upcoming Wolverine.

Man of Steel looks interesting, but really, what can they do in a Supes movie that we haven't seen before?

Thor 2 - I wasn't a big fan of the first Thor, but I did really enjoy Chris Hemsworth as the character. That's enough to interest me in a sequel, I just hope we get a lot more of the 9 realms and a lot [frick]in' less of Kat Dennings.

Iron Man 3 - this is the one my money's on. I'm ridiculously hyped for this one, mostly because of writer/director Shane Black, one of my all-time favorite screenwriters. I'm hugely excited to see his take on the material.
